When I was looking for a new mount, I read all the reviews and went with the powered AKRON windshield mount for my x5. I was assured that it was compatable and would work just fine. First, the amplified speaker can't be used because it is blocked by thr GPS receiver(so what good was that powered mount?). The charging cable is so loose that it falls out and therefore I can't use it. The sticky stuff on the windsield ain't sticky enough and each morning the mount has fallen onto the floor. It has also fallen numerous times with the axim on it. Luckily it has not broken the screen. I was a piece-O- crap that I threw away. I went to Wal-mart and bought some Velcro for less than $. It works great and never drops the Ax...Oh yeah...The free vent mount wouldn't work either.
Do what I did...small piece of velcro on the dash and another small piece (a large postage stamp size)on the axim....works better than anything else I've tried. Costs less than a buck!!
